their full extent will probably never
be known. All of the interest of her

THE FOEI M-Lorettus :. Metcalf editor. The
Forum Publishing Company, 81 Fifth avenue,
New York.
The everlasting Andover controversy,
of which Gail Hamilton speaks, Contin-
ues TO interest theologisns. In the June
number of the Forum Professor Francis
L. Patton asks il the teachings of this
school are not tending 10 RumaniSm, and
is inclined to class its orthodoxy as retro
gressive rather than progressive. One of
the charges he makes against the view Of
probation taken by these dissenting pro-
lessons is that their teaching leads TO 4
belief in justification by works rather
than q justification by faith, which is the
groundwork of Professionalism, and by fair
deduction shows their peculiar doctrine
an extra biblical belief that is certainly
in accord with the Romish church, which
alone claims corporate infallibility.
These speculati0uS are curious, but what
ever be the views of processing Christ
isns, the command of their chosen cap
tam rings out clear and Enthusiastically,

gospel to every creature"

O7erton Sharp Shooter.
This gentleman is cashier of the sixth
national bank of Fort Worth, called the
Merchants National Bank. We made his
acquaintance last week when We visited
Fort Worth. We had the pleasure of his
company for drive over the city. He
took US in MS private carriage and drove
us over the city for the space of near four
hours. He is thoroughly posted as to
the advance of values in the Fort Worth
real estate market. He seemed TO know
every house and who owned it, what it
was worth one, two, three and four years
ago, and what it Is worth now.
He can tell what all the public improve
ment cost, and what those to be built will
cost, in fact Mr.. Smith is perfect walk
ing encyclopedia of Information. Heis not
ebtruslve or gassy, but is sufficiently
communicative to give information when
asked for in the proper spirit. We after
wards learned that he is regarded as one
of the best bank managers, and the tinest
fnaaciers in Texas. The bank of which
he is cashier and manager, now has 9
cash capital of $500, 900, and is to be IL
creased to 5000, 900.

A Plea for Practical Education.

FORT WORTH, Ten, June 4, 1881.
To the Editor of the Gazette.
The statement in THE GAZETTE that
there Were SO few teachers who could
bound Tarrant county, is another remind
er of how unWise IN some respects has
been the education Of the past. and how
much need there is to infuse the new,
progressive spirit into our schoolroOms.
From the immediate to the remote in
matters of education Is but the applica
ton Of the great induCtive principle for
mulated by Bacon, which has revolution
lied science and contributed more than
any one factor TO the unparalleled ad-
vaucement of this century.
A man or woman is educated whose
eyes and brain are educated to see all
there is around and to reason theTefrom;
for whom every cloud has meaning,
every breeze story, ard every leaf les
son; to whom tho every stone may rot
reveal an angel, yet it peaks of the past,
present and future, and teaches much Of
wisdom, beauty and use, and the very
dust beneath his feet furnishes food for
thought which will result in good TO his
fellow man.
Much could be said in favor of such an
education, its moral, intellectual, physical
and social advantages, but we will only
glance moment at the purely practical
side. How much we need thoroughly to
understand our climate, our soil, our
productions Of ell kinds, the relations OF
all these to each other, and to what ex-
tent all may be modified by mans neglect
or intelligent management. How worthy
this subject of the brain and effort of the
ambitious and patriotic. 1t seems then
the highest wisdom that education in
this direction should be encouraged and
fostered, Our science classes should be
taken to our factories, foundries and
wsterHorks, led into our own pastures,
fielda and praiTies, and beside our streams
and through our railroad cuts. Let the
geography class become thoroughly IS.
E1iliar with the topography of the adjacent
country and as far as possible that Of the
county, then will the mind more readily
comprehend our great state with its vari-
Gus natural divisions and their attendant
peculiaritles. A map OF Tsrr&nt and
bounding counties is much easier to
draw than Europe, Or even South
America or Maine, and should for that
and other reasons be among the first 20 be
taught the child. Indeed, q map Of the
school yard and its boundaries will help
him 10 grasp the idea of maps more
readily than much talking. "Things seen
are mightier than things heard" Teach
ers of experience sre often startled at the
crudeness of the child's conceptions.
The above suggestions are not new to
our teachers; all of them have been more
or less carried out in some of our schools,
at least, but this feature, it seems to me,
should be made more prominent in our
system. 1t would be altogether in har-
mony. with this idea that our school
yards be set out in trees. But too much
is suggested by the bare mention of such
d thing, enough for separate article.

TEXAS is too large for lie to spread all over
It at once, The unfavorable crop reports of
one section are always double discounted by
the abundant promise of scores of other reports.
The outlooS averages more than well and corn
and cotton are booked for big yield.-[San
Antonio Light.
THE GAZETTE has often sought to i'm
press the immense size of Texas on the
public mind. AS well might one attempt
to portray the progress, crime or crop
prospects Of all New England, New York,
Ohio and Pennsylvania combined intelli-
gently and justly, as to try to tell of Tex
as affairs. A "drouth in Texas" may
mean the best crops ever known in a sec.
ton equal in area to FIVE states like Hi
nois. No man can judge this state cor
rectly who neglects to consider its i'm
mense size

Joseph Il. Brown.
OYerton sharp Shooter.

This gentleman is appropriately SWsrd-
ed position in the front rank of busl-
ness men of Texas. He is the W. D.
Cleveland of Fort Worth. To him per-
haps more than any cause is Fort Worth
indebted fer the rapid strides she has
made on the roll Of progress.
A railroad msgnate not long ago was
addressing q meeting at Fort Worth, and
among otner things he said that one Joe
Brown was worth ten railroads, and he
told the truth. We honestly believe that
Joe Brown might be set down in wild
erness, and railroad would be built TO
him in less than q year. We visited his
new building last week. We will not at
tempt to give description Of it, as th2t
would take one entire issue of our paper.
The entire building is of hard lime
stone, and fire proof exterior, is tour
stories high, fronts I58 feet on Main
street and runs back 200 feet, has three
steam elevators and many flights Of
stairs. The office front of 100 feet is
French plate glass, the entire flee furni-
ture is solid mahogany, and the ceiling
overhead is mosaic work, Of red and yell
low wood. A railroad is built 10 the back
end of the building and four cars can be
loaded or uulOaded ct the same time.
The building cost $4,000. Mr..
Brown carries a stock or ali kind OF fam
lily groceries and provisions, his average
stock is from four to five hundred thou
sand dollars, and his annual business is
two and 8 half millions. To give some
idea of the size of the business we state
that the main business house has over
three acres of floor room, counting the
gallery for light goods.
Thirty feet east OF the big building
stands the factory where he mSnufac-
lures baking powders, roasted conse,
stick and fancy candies, chewing guF,
etc. This building is 75x1G0 and four
stories high, it is itself large bsnd-
ing but looks small being so close the
large building. The entire estshlishcs

As Dallas to Fort Worth

That's just about the truth of it, my
dear Waco friend. We have one railroad
now; on the 1st of October well have an
other, and IN November Wen have another
and one of the finest cotton congresses
in the state. Give US time and Hillsboro
will be to Waco what Dallas is to Fort
Worth. We have the country and the
enterprise to get everything in sight.
And if you can't raise the wind TO get

Fe, turn them over to Hillsboro. 1t only

a Pressing Gond,
Overton Sharp Shooter.


One Of the greatest needs OF Texas is q
paper mill. There is no reason why all
the news and book paper, as we'll as the
straw and MANILA paper used
in Texas could not be man
ufactured here and by this means
keep at home all the money We now pay
for this article. The matter was pretty
well canvassed at Fort Worth last week
among the members of the press, and all
present expressed willingness TO take
stock in such an enterprise. We were
credibly informed that there were respon-
sible parties ready to put mill in opera
ton here if the consumers of paper
would obligate themselves to patroniz9
the mill, in preference to northern mills,
they to sell paper at the same price we
now pay, less the freight from the north
ern mills. Let US speak out and get the
paper mill on foot.

Or course Texas is fer Cleveland. He
gave Democracy its first success in
twenty-five years; he has given the coun-
try peace and pacifcation; he has gwen
the south q boom in convincing northern
capital that Radicalism has slandered one

JUST now Texas is blessed with a few
of the most industrious representatives
in Congress of any state in the Union.
Some states complain that their congress
men and senators leave their posts of
duty and devote their valuable services to
private matters. Texas can make no such
complaint. On the contrary, she has
representatives in the national capital at
present. They mean to stay right by it
to the end Of the chapter. They have
nothing special to keep them there, but
the manner in which they sing "Wait
Till the Clouds Roll By" means some
thing.
